Another painting framed

Making a frame, even a simple one for a miniature painting is much more difficult than I thought. This tiny
minimized painting is only 2.2x1.8 cms. (less than an inch)

About the painter.  He is Tulio Enrique Velasques, son of the famous greatest painter of Honduras, Jose Antonio Velasquez . The small painting was purchased in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.  It was already framed so we left it as it was.





You can see the miniature at the top.


I used match sticks for this frame.






This is how part of the 1:1 real  original  paintings collection looks on our wall. I'll show you more as I
 progress.

Blessings to all

    I love modern miniatures and haven't found modern frames that I liked so far. Yours is great.

    I believe every single word you've said about how difficult it is to make frames for tiny pictures - but you've done a wonderful job! And I really love this project, your art collection is so beautiful and the paintings must be so dear to you - it's so nice you're going to have them twice!

    Cualquier miniatura es difícil de hacer aunque parezca que no es complicado, pero para tí parece que todo es fácil porque siempre te quedan estupendamente las minis. Ese cuadrito está fenomenal y luce en miniatura tanto como en la realidad.Un beso.
